Some patients can be left unable to walk from having had pelvic mesh fitted. This can completely change everything, and it is important that we – as specialist Vaginal Mesh Lawyers – are able to do everything in our power to help.
Although we may not be able to change what has happened, and what patients may be left suffering from in the future, legal action can help. It can ensure that a victim receives some form of justice for what they have had to go through, and a claim could also factor in private treatment where applicable.
As medical devices designed to be implanted as a long-term solution, vaginal mesh implants should be used with safety in mind. Using medical devices inside the body is never something that should be taken lightly at all. Many patients that are presented with this treatment option may assume that the materials and structure of vaginal mesh implants are intended to prevent injury risks, but not all such devices have been successful in this regard. Those who have been hurt or wounded by vaginal mesh may be able to claim for internal injuries that they have suffered from, and we may be able to help you now.
Unfortunately, recent years have seen a wave of reports in respect of the potential health complications of vaginal mesh, among which there have been a range of different internal injuries that people can suffer from. Such injuries can also have their own side-effects that can provoke serious difficulties in the everyday lives of the affected patients.
In our view, it is worrying that these devices were allowed to pass supposedly stringent safety regulations, and that many doctors have recommended this course of treatment to their patients. It is for this reason that we are helping victims to pursue compensation claims to account for any injustice.
Despite being used as a form of treatment for many years in the UK, vaginal mesh implants have been associated with incredibly harmful and debilitating complications for a long time now. The only hope of reversing these side-effects can be further surgery in some cases, but difficult mesh removal procedures are not easily available due to the expert knowledge and skill required to perform such an operation. In such cases, victims may be eligible to claim compensation to cover the cost of private surgery, and we may be able to assist with this in some cases.
These medical devices were conceived with the aim of treating problems like pelvic organ prolapse and urinary incontinence, but have proved to be unfit for purpose for many patients. The complications that can be caused by vaginal mesh can be irreversible, as the implants are designed to be permanent. Corrective or removal surgery can be possible in some cases, but it is not easy.
If you have been harmed by vaginal mesh that has arisen from negligence, you should not have to pay to treat a condition that has been caused through no fault of your own. A claim for the cost of private surgery could, in some cases, form part of a wider medical negligence claim to account for the injustice you have suffered at the hands of medical professionals.
If you have suffered as a result of negligent aftercare in relation to pelvic mesh surgery, you could be entitled to claim compensation now with No Win, No Fee legal representation.
A lot can go wrong with pelvic mesh procedures, and the impact in terms of complications and how they can cause permanent problems remain a significant cause for concern. Despite what we know about how badly things can go wrong, and despite thousands of women worldwide suffering, this controversial procedure is still being carried out here in the UK. Although a number of changes have been implemented that are supposed to avoid women being put at risk, we still see people being harmed. And when it comes to problems with aftercare, patients can suffer horrendously.
Prevention is key to stopping another scandal like the vaginal mesh one from ever taking place again. It is also important that victims who have suffered are entitled to pursue compensation for any pain and suffering endured.
Whilst we cannot turn back the clock, we can hope for a better future. We can push for better testing and research before medical devices are used, and we can recover compensation for people who have suffered as a result of negligence.
In recent years, vaginal mesh complications have left some patients in desperate and difficult situations. The health problems some women face after vaginal mesh surgery can have a devastating impact on their lives, significantly affecting their well-being as a result. Many victims may, understandably, feel like they have been wronged and may be asking: “can I claim compensation?”
Medical negligence is a complex area of law, with many different factors and circumstances determining your ability to potentially seek justice. However, on the whole, the basic fact remains the same: if the negligent actions of a medical professional have caused a downturn in your health, you may be able to claim compensation for any proven breach of duty.
As medical negligence specialists, we are always looking to address injustices in the healthcare system, and we believe the vaginal mesh scandal can represent one of the most serious betrayals of some patients in recent years. To address your injustice, you can contact us today for free legal advice on your potential compensation claim.
The potential for long-term complications and issues that patients can suffer from when they undergo a procedure involving vaginal mesh remains a serious cause for concern.
These medical devices are approved for use still here in the UK, and they have been used here and across the globe for decades. Despite this, some women have suffered from some horrendous injuries and complications arising from the use of mesh, and we are here to help any victims to pursue the justice that they may deserve.
Patients who have undergone unnecessary pelvic mesh procedures can be entitled to pursue a claim for personal injury compensation on a No Win, No Fee basis.
We can investigate your potential legal case to identify if you have been the victim of negligence. Whether it is down to poor advice or better alternatives not being explored, we may be able to help you.
Whilst a vaginal mesh compensation claim cannot turn back the clock and, in some cases, cannot undo some of the damage done, it can mean that you achieve some form of justice for what you have had to endure. We are here to help, and we will do all that we can to try to assist you.
Can you do anything about waiting for private mesh treatment or NHS treatment? You may be able to do so, and we may be able to help you.
As part of a claim for vaginal mesh compensation, in some cases, we may be able to obtain private treatment as part of a case. We may also be able to get the Defendant to pay for it, or at least get a part-payment from them before the case settles to pay for it.
Here is some information about when we may be able to do this and the basis on which we can try to achieve it.
